There is more to learn about the Detroit Pistons this preseason than nearly any other team in the NBA.

The Pistons kicked off their much-anticipated 2013-14 campaign with games against Israel's Maccabi Haifa and the defending NBA champion Miami Heat.

The matchups were the first looks Pistons fans got at a roster with eight new faces and new head coach Maurice Cheeks at the helm.

The frontcourt trio of Andre Drummond, Greg Monroe and Josh Smith started both games, but Cheeks used four different players at the guard spots.

With so many new parts, the Pistons rotation is far from a certainty at this point. Cheeks will have to use preseason performances to determine who will get playing time when the regular season begins.

The injury comes at an especially inopportune time for Stuckey, who was competing with Chauncey Billups for the starting 2-guard spot.

The seventh-year guard didn't exactly blow anyone away with his play in his lone preseason game either. He finished with just five points and three assists in 30 minutes on just 1-of-6 shooting from the field.

Now, because of his car door, Stuckey won't be available for the season opener against the Washington Wizards.

Loser: Charlie Villanueva

Kim Klement-USA TODAY SportsVillanueva needs to prove he can consistently knock down threes for the Pistons.

As the best-shooting big on the roster, Charlie Villanueva appeared to have an advantage over Jerebko heading into the season. That advantage is gone if his shots aren't falling.

Villanueva, who played 21 minutes in both contests, was awful against the Heat, finishing with just two points and four rebounds, failing to make a field goal.

Against Maccabi he posted a line of 11 points and seven boards, but he scored all of his points near the basket.

Villanueva is a combined 0-of-8 from beyond the arc thus far and brings little else to the court if he can't knock down threes. But the Pistons are just 10-of-46 from deep so far, indicating they need someone with his skill set.

Winner: Will Bynum

Raj Mehta-USA TODAY SportsBynum took full advantage of his opportunity against the Heat.

Will Bynum didn't see the court against Maccabi, but he hardly got a rest in the second game of preseason.

With Brandon Jennings (wisdom teeth), Chauncey Billups (DNP) and Stuckey all unavailable to play, Bynum played 46 minutes against the defending champs. He ended the game with 28 points on 11-of-16 from the field, tied with Miami's Chris Bosh as the game's leading scorer.

Bynum was able to get into the heart of the Heat defense, with 10 of his 11 makes coming in the paint. He also went to the line eight times.

The efficient shooting night was a good sign for Bynum, who'll be fighting for minutes in a very deep backcourt. When he's on his game, nobody else on the roster can match his energy off the bench.

Loser: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

Raj Mehta-USA TODAY SportsKCP has not found his shooting stroke in preseason.

These first two games cannot be how Kentavious Caldwell-Pope envisioned his NBA career beginning.

The former Georgia Bulldog was drafted to provide some outside shooting on the wing, but he hasn't been able to find the touch through two games.

Against Maccabi he finished 1-of-12 from the field, missing all six of his three-point attempts. He was slightly better against the Heat at 2-of-8 from the floor, hitting one of five from beyond the arc.

With Stuckey out through the preseason and an underwhelming performance by Billups in 19 minutes against Maccabi—two points, 0-of-4 from the field—KCP had a real opportunity to prove he deserved a shot to start at shooting guard.

Instead, he looked the part of a 20-year-old rookie who will need some time before he's NBA-ready.
